 You can then tag faces in each of the assembly parts and create your asembly. To export the assembly to a mesh file, you do the following.
 
 ```python
-your_assembly.assemblyToGmsh(mesh_path="tagged_mesh.msh")
+your_assembly.saveToGmsh(mesh_path="tagged_mesh.msh")
 ```
 
 Normal tag names lead to a physical group with the assembly part name prefixed. So a tag name of `inner-bottom` on an assembly part with the name `steel_plate` will be `steel_plate_inner-bottom`

 The resulting `.msh` file should have three physical groups named for tags in it. The `in_contact` group should include the faces from both the shell and the insert.
 
+If you want more control over the mesh generation and export, you can use the `getTaggedGmsh` method and then finalize the mesh yourself.

 ## Tests
 
 These tests are also run in Github Actions, and the meshes which are generated can be viewed as artifacts on the successful `tests` Actions there.
